S.M. is Scipio Moorhead, slave of the Reverend John Moorhead of Boston. :) Katie from United States Comment 3 of 6, added on October 16th, 2008 at 11:32 PM. I love this poem too, it was assigned to us in my American Literature class. Although I don't know on which painting this poem was inspired I do know that S.M. stands for Scipio Moorhead who was a servant. Camila from United States Comment 2 of 6, added on September 8th, 2008 at 4:33 PM. This poem is lovely. Does anyone know who S.M is or the painting that inspired the poem? Margaret from United States Comment 1 of 6, added on March 11th, 2005 at 7:05 AM. Indeed the author is seen through her thoughts as noble! She talks about the gloom of the earthly (the painting) end with grace. Great courage! Olivia olivia m. birigenda from Uganda Share \|
